INNER-CITY BRISBANE, QUEENSLAND

Combine seafood, shopping, water activities and an array of dining options, and you’ll get one of Brisbane’s most loved Bayside locations, Manly. Featuring picturesque Moreton Bay as the backdrop, vessels of all shapes and sizes sit side by side in the city’s largest marina, with some of Queensland’s top-rated island destinations within close reach, including Moreton Island, Stradbroke Island and the Tangalooma Wrecks. This sea-side village attracts aquatic enthusiasts and those chasing a mini sea-change whilst being only 30 minutes away from the CBD. With a population of just 4,064 Manly houses a close knit community of people, who share a passion for the sea.

    THE APPEAL

Peaceful waterside living. Although Manly is a hub for boating enthusiasts, it remains relatively under-developed, maintaining an idyllic stillness. Staring out at the islands of Moreton Bay, you’d be forgiven for forgetting the Brisbane CBD is a just a half hour's drive away. Many restaurants serve high quality seafood, best enjoyed from verandahs overlooking the water. 

    THE REAL ESTATE & PROPERTY

Grandeur, quaint and everything in between.  

Manly is a mixed bag of luxury townhouses, large modern family homes, traditional weatherboard houses and older-style unit complexes. Unlike other beachfront locations, The Esplanade remains reasonably undeveloped, with a combination of modern apartments, Queenslander architecture and older shacks lining the waterfront stretch. 

    NEIGHBOURHOOD & LIFESTYLE

Share a love for the sea.  

Manly attracts both families and established couples who are drawn to the appeal of a bayside village and the relaxed lifestyle that comes with it. Proximity to the water defines the lifestyle, so whether you enjoy fishing, boating, seaside walks or sailing, there's an aquatic activity for you in Manly. The large communal spaces turn into a hive of activity every weekend, which emulates the high community spirit.  

    YOU'LL FALL IN LOVE WITH

The Esplanade & Village. 

More than just a place to dock your boat, the seaside esplanade is home to an array of parks, and pathways to walk and cycle. Manly Harbour Village is a charming seaside precinct boasting a lively atmosphere of entertainment, dining and boutique shopping and market experiences.
